Emma’s Story

Emma was a young single mum about to lose her tenancy when she came to No Limits for help. Emma wanted to make sure that she could start looking after her property and bring her child up in a safe, clean environment. We helped Emma look at ways to manage paying her bills on time. We also looked at how she could improve her parenting skills, and had a look for free or cheap activities she could do with her son. Things soon began to improve and Emma found that her son was happier, and that she was coping better – it was nice to have a clean flat, and to know that she was on top of things. She was even sleeping better. Because Emma was getting support from Floating Support, the council agreed to extend the tenancy for another 6 months and Emma wasn’t evicted.
